The only Olympic festival in the country: Brno attracts to a snow park and a ski jump
Specific anti-epidemic measures determine the current situation. Members of the Czech Olympic Committee cooperate with hygiene. “We are preparing all sports venues directly in the outdoor areas of the complex, only we will not move curling lanes from hidden halls, but we will limit their capacity,” outlined Libor Varhaník, Vice-Chairman of the Czech Olympic Committee.
The morning part of the festival program is to focus mainly on children. “We are preparing a special sports program for South Moravian primary and secondary schools, which will be every weekday morning, completely free of charge. The children will try up to five sports under professional supervision, “said the chairman of the Olympic Committee, Jiří Kejval.
The only winter edition of the sports holiday: Brno will put millions at the Olympic Festival
As Deník Rovnost has already informed, ten million crowns will go to the festival from the level of Brno and the region. In addition to the Nová Zbrojovka complex, the location of the event at the Brno Exhibition Grounds was considered. However, better conditions decided in favor of Nová Zbrojovka. Its owner, CPI Property Group, will provide the premises free of charge and cover operating costs.
“Thanks to effective cooperation with the city, Nová Zbrojovka is gradually changing and coming to life. For a long time, we bring the area closer to the public through various smaller events and open roads. Thanks to the festival, however, more people will have the opportunity to experience the atmosphere of the future modern city district, “said Petr Brabec on behalf of CPI Property Group.
An ice rink, usually located next to the statue of Jošt in the city center, will be moved to the complex for this winter. It will start operating on December 18, and will last throughout the winter season, including the duration of the festival. Similarly, outside it, they can use the curling lanes located in the armor’s indoor hall.
